You can't make this up.
One of the lines of the Rotterdam metro system ends in the town of Spijkenisse. To save costs the terminal was not dug deep in the unstable clay ground but rather high up in the air.
An artist made two large bronzepolyester sculptures in the shape of a whale's tail to complement the end of the line.
Last night something miraculous happened. One metro liner burst through the end stop and instead of dropping down to ground level it came to rest on top of the sculpture...

There were no passengers and the train driver was uninjured.
The name of the sculpture is 'Saved by a Whale's Tail'...
